Tottenham Hotspur haven’t been linked to Roma midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo since last summer, and the Italian media has something to say about it today.
Still recovering from his cruciate ligament injury, the player has been sidelined since September, with some hope he could still feature for his club this season.
Outlet Forza Roma recalls today that the 21-year-old had been unhappy with the attitude from Roma fans last year, and that’s why he was considering the move abroad.
They write Tottenham were ‘ready to welcome him’ in London, and the plan ended up collapsing with the injury he had.
Forza Roma’s story is about how things changed for Zaniolo since then, as he’s now entering the final stage of his recovery, looking to have a few games for Roma before the end of the season and dreaming of a place at the Euros.
They say a ‘new life’ awaits him in the next season. That probably doesn’t include the interest from Spurs, who’ve been quiet from the moment the midfielder had to go under knee surgery.
